BUILDINGS AS MATERIAL BANKS

A PATHWAY FOR A CIRCULAR FUTURE

INDUSTRY DAY

5 February 2019, Brussels, Belgium

 

We all know it, building materials end up as waste when no longer needed, which can in turn harm ecosystems, increase environmental costs, and contribute to resource scarcity. Yet, buildings can also be seen as material banks located at every corner of urban areas.

Considering buildings as a resource is a first step towards creating value of otherwise worthless materials. From materials passports through reversible building design and circular business models to policy recommendations — i less than four years — BAMB2020 has established a series of actionable tools to enable a transition towards a more circular economy.

Sharing solutions, shifting the construction business. The day aims to share the circular solutions created with all stakeholders of the construction sector, get practical feedback, have fruitful exchanges and pass on the knowledge created. The BAMB-CIRCPATH event is an industry day during which we will celebrate cutting-edge practices through interactive sessions.

The Industry Day taking place on 5 February 2019 is inviting innovation enthusiasts and construction industry professionals to come along for fresh insights into ‘Circular building’.
